Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court has under
adv;sement the following cases: s.
III. Wright VS.. W. C. Dovey, State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton. Superintendent Dewey, in
making the January apportionment
of State school moneys, did not in
clude in the number of school CEN
sus children of the State, the so
wards now in the State Orphans
Home. This suit was commenced
to compel this officer to include
these so wards in the census pepu-
lation of Carson Citv school dis
trict. To include these wards
would increase the amount annual
ly received in that district about
500, taking the same from the
amount to be apportloned to other
parts of the State.
The case of the State Board Of
Education VS.. State Treasurer Geo.
Tufy, to compel him to invest
Sc, 900 in the State bonds of Cali
fornla. This suit is brought to test
the constitutlonality of an amend
ment to the Constitution providing
for the investment of State school
moneys in the State bonds of other
States, as well as in United States
bonds aud Nevada State bonds, as
originally provided for in the Con-
stitution. 1t is believed that the
Court will arrive at decision in
both of these cases of general inter-
est within few days.

George Il. De Prans, the Comb

Adjourne.

| George l.. De Prans, the Conf
dence Man. Comes to Grief.
The Grass Valley Tidings has
the following, which will interest a
good many people whom De Prans
has swin0led:
Sheriff Lord came into town at
3 o clock today, having in charge
George 1. De Prans, the general
confidence man, Of whose opera
tions the Tidings gave a detailed
account day or two since. The
Sheriff got news Of his man late
Thursday night, and Friday morn
ing started on the track, a double
team being the mode of convey
ance. De Praus was traced
through Marysville, Yuba City and
different points on to Gridley,
Butte county. When the Sheriff
arrived at the latter place he found
that the local constable had but
few minutes before arrested De
Prans, having recognized him by
the description sent through the
country. Sheriff Lord was hot on
the track and would himself have
had the pleasure of arrestlng his
man-had not the constable fore
stalled him.
De Prans left the horse and buggy
borrowed by him from Mrs. D..
Morrison of Rough and Ready, at
Wheatland, and Sheriff Lord re-
covered the property and restored
the same to its rightful owner.
The prisoner is not a naturally
vicious man, but has been brought
to his present level by too frequent
libations of the flowing bowl.

Mrs. Sullivan ON John

A letter from Mrs. John L. Sulli-
van says: Il see by the New York
Herald that Sullivan says he has a
broken arm and cannot fight. 1t is
all lie: / know his old lodges,
and this is one of them. Patsey
Cardiff was too much for him, and
lie invented the lame arm idea to
save himself from big whipping.
/ remember one time when he met
Mitchell he told me that the Eng
lishman would have dsne him up
In more round. That is John l..
Sullivan all oyer. He jumps at a
man at the start and usually fin
ishcs him in the first or second
round, or makes him unable to do
much fighting. If he fails to
use his enemy up at the end of
three rounds, Sullivan grows scared,
loses his wind and cries baby, the
way he did in Minneapolis. / tell
you that Patsey Cardiff can whip
John L., and 1 am glad of it. He
Is a big brute aud coward.

The Reno Reduction works

Everything is life and activity at
the Reno Reduction Works. More
ore is coming in than can be
worked, and in less than a year the
Journal predicts the Works will be
twice their present size. The Cen
trail Pacific has recently made a
material reduction on ores from
Colfax, Newcastle aud Redding.
The card rate was $50 per carload e,
bat the liberal rate of $50 frem
Colfax, $37 from Newcastle and
$40 from Redding has been given.
The rate charged from points East
Of Reno is two cents per ton per
mile, or 50 per ton for a distance
of 100 miles. This is a very fair
rate, and Manager Howell says the
Central Pacific folks have been
very coed to them. The Virginia
and Truckee road is not as liberal
as the Central Pacific. It charges
81 per ton for $50 ore from Can
delaria, and proportionately higher
prices will increase in value OF the
ores. The new smelter will be
| ready in about week, and then
every department will be in opera
ton. Manager Howell and Supt,
Carey work day and night, so tn at
everything is going along like clock
work.
Carson might have had these
works but for the opposition of a
few cranks, who feared that if the
town grew it would help somebody
thew were down on.

Last evening when the editor of
the APPEAL went home to supper
he was asked by his wife if he
couldn't manage to secure some
natural flowers for her as she wish
ed to decorate the cell of man in
Jail in Nevada county, California.
The editor agreed to get the
flowers as he is not in the habit of
refusing requests from that direc-
ton no matter how unreasonable
they may seem but he determined
to put in a mild expostulation just
for forms sake.
Don't you think it rather foolish
for a grown woman to decorate Jail

A New Explanation OF How it
Came About

S8kAkC <AbOUk.
An Eastern paper has dug up a
new theory for the crack Fair got
on the head some years ago. Here
it is:
Mr.. Fair is a peculiar man. He
apparently trusts no one. People
whom he could trust are those who
are situated in such way that
they could not get into business
enterprises with him. He distrusts
all of his subordinates. He is one
of the most secretive of men. If he
has any financial project in view
he never con6des in or advises with
any one. He acts on his own in
formation and judgment. Although
he is an uneducated man, yet he
gave his phySlciaLs a lesson in sur
gerry one day which surprised them
A number Of years ago, when Mr..
Fair was engaged in active superin-
tendcnce of mining properties, he
directed the boss in one of his
mines to have a wrought iron crank
made at a certain angle. This
foreman told him that 1t was i'm
possible. Mr.. FAIR then went to the
works at the mouth of the mine,
put on a workman s apron and cap,
aud began the work of making the
crank himself, at the angle he
had described. The foreman in
charge of that room, coming around,
saw workman, as he supposed
disobeying orders in wasting prop
erty by trying to make what had
already been declared an impossi-
bility. He picked up a piece Of
iron and knocked the amateur
workmen down just as he was com
pleting the piece of work his fore
man had said was impossible.
This blow fractured Fairs skull.
HIS life was saved only through
trepanning. Mr.. Fair today has
a small silver plate in the top of
his head. After he had recovered
he felt very uncomfortable. He
felt symptoms of a brain trouble.
After a time he went back to the
surgeon and said: Il am certain
that that job was not we'll done;
there is a splinter left in that
wound--I can feel the prick of it,
The surgeon at first would not
listen to Mr. Fair, but he insisted
on having it done over again. The
surgeon then discovered that there
was a splinter, and that if the Sen
ator had not himself discovered
the cause Of his trouble his brain
would have been affected Ia a short
time beyond the hope of recovery.
Out here in Nevada there is an
other story about it. Fair kept
promising man a job, and the
poor fellow hung about the works
fer weeks. Fair met him every
morning with pleasant smile, and
assured him that he would be all
right in a day or so, until the
man learned that Fair was making
a guy of him and laughing over it.
Next morning he met Far as
usual.
L can put you on tomorrow,
said Fair, cheerily.
The poor dupe responded by
knocking Fair down with a pick
handle and hammering him sense
less. This is the plain. unvarnished
story that passes current In Vir-
yinia City.

The manufacture of sand is an impor-
tant industry, which has Pittsburg for
its headquarters, although the sand is
not made within the limits of the city.
There is considerable traffic in Monon-
gahela sand, which is scooped up from
the bed of the river, to be used for com
mon building purposes; but the manu-
facture of sand is quite another affair.
and the product goes into quite differ
cnt commodity, which is glass.
Practically glass is almost pure sand,
other substances used in its manufacture
for fluxing being consumed while the
sand is transformed to greater or less
degree OF transparency. The sand used
in glass making is almost pure silica, so
nearly pure that there is less than one
per cent. of iron, magnesia, and albumi-
mum, to ninety-nine per cent. of the
other. And of this sand which is quar-
ried out of the hills and ground down
to varying degrees of finencss, and
washed to varying degrees of whiteness,
eight hundred tons are manufactured
daily, four hundred tons being consumed
in and about Pittsburg, and four hun
drcd tons going into Eastern Ohio and
Westr Virginia to Wheeling, Bellaire,
Columbus and all point, within circuit
of one hundred and fifty miles from
Pittsburg. Popular Science Monthly.

A Strong Man.

There is man on the Carson river,
below Dayton, Nevada, named Angela
Cordclla, who claims to be the strongest
man in the world. He is an Italian,
aged 2S, and stands feet 10 inches,
weighing 1913 pounds. His strength
was born with him, for he had no ath-
lctic training. He differs from other
men chiefly in the osseous structure.
Although not of unusual size, his spi.
nal column is much beyond the ordinary
width, and his bones and joints are
made on similarly large and generous
scale. lie has lifted a man of 200
pounds with the middle finger of his
right hand. The man stood with one
foot on the floor, his arms outs.retcbea,
his hands grasped by two persons to
balance his body. Cordclla then stopped
and placed the third finger of his right
hand under the mans foot, and, with
scarcely any perceptiblc effort, raised him
to the height of four feet and deposited
him on table near at hand. Once two
powerful men waylaid Cordella with in
tent to thrash him, but he sciztd one in
each hand and hammered them together
until life was nearly knocked out oi
them.

How to Cook SnailS.

This is the way to cook snails accord
ing to Jay Gould's formula: Boil them
first in their shells; then submerge them
in highly-favored sauce, and finally
roast them. They are served in the
shells, which by this time are thoroughly
Drowned. When eaten, they are piled
hot on plate, after the manner of
roasted clans, and the eater extracts
them by holding a she'll in his left hand,
while with a fork in his right he gets
the curious morsel out. The taste is
pleasant, if one isn't squeamish, and a
liking is easily acquired for the ''es-
cargots," as they are called in the res
taurants where they have been this week
suddenly introduced. Some of the
snails eaten in New York are brought
from France, but the bulk are gathered
by boys in the outlaying districts.
